The new infrastructure extends throughout Allen, along route 121 and 75 corridors leading to Allen, and connects the network to downtown Dallas, adding to UPN’s nearly 800 mile fiber network in the metro. Business customers will now have access to dark fiber or lit services that are scalable from 100 mbps to 100 gbps, as well as a suite of other products.

“This build-out adds to other recent network expansion activities in the broader Dallas/Fort Worth metro, including Frisco and Plano,” said James Edison Regional Sales Director for Unite Private Networks. The fiber expansion will allow triple-path redundancy for Allen businesses and data centers back to UPN’s core network. This gives our customers the ability to connect to the extensive list of data centers on the UPN network in Dallas, as well as access to metro Ethernet, dark fiber, Internet, wavelengths, and custom-built options all powered by a low-latency carrier-grade, 100 percent fiber-optic network.”
